[edit] History

Right Now! was recorded in Muscle Shoals, Alabama, and issued with no publicity as a low-budget LP. Richard himself recalled that: We were about to start a tour and we needed some money. So [Robert "Bumps" Blackwell] and me got a deal for one album with an advance of ten thousand dollars from Kent Modern. We went into the studio and did it in one night. I did material we had worked out together. I prefer recording at night, my voice is in better shape then. ^[1] (page 168-169).
